@mitchellhynes @isomorphist Lmao was about to say, "Wasn't the Halo netcode famously awful?"

All systems are looking good for launch of Crew-6 on Thursday, March 2 at 12:34 a.m. → https://t.co/bJFjLCiTbK

@linusgsebastian this seems to be right up your alley of "weird networking options". 10Gbit Ethernet over old TV cable coax. https://t.co/QjgCBeKikP

@nicklmg Can we get the bit set images, or an exploded screwdriver view on a T-Shirt? I'm an engineer and I think they'd be fun.

@jakkuh_t Instead of paint, you should try excalidraw (https://t.co/zRY6tnLABU). Super easy to make cute little diagrams.

@JayzTwoCents Just heard you say "throw an SSD in an old laptop with platter drives and watch it come to life". Can confirm. Had an old Lenovo Y50 with a 5400 drive that went from unusable for browsing to ok for gaming with just an SSD. People underestimate it.

@BrentButt I'm going to start working this into casual conversation to see if anyone gets it.

@linusgsebastian @TeamViewer Lol should send them a C&D

[Wetmelon @Wetmelon]

@linusgsebastian BRO. Liero was my *jam* as a kid. I would play on WADS and my buddy would play on arrow keys. Best times.

@Dave__Robinson @rice_fry Right, but would it not be easier to measure the depth directly? It's like plugging a measured state in the Kalman filter instead of an estimated one

[Wetmelon @Wetmelon]

@rice_fry And to be clear, it may not be entirely a cost thing. Spending the effort to fuse in the lidar data may never be worth it. Curious where the line is though...

[Wetmelon @Wetmelon]

@rice_fry I'm really impressed by their voxel nets. But I'm curious how cheap 3D lidar has to get before it's better to spend clock cycles on tasks other than depth estimation.

@Al_The_Camel @goosebeleafin @NHLBlackhawks To preface, I have no dog in this fight, but most people who disagree with naming an NHL team after a tribe, also strongly disagree with naming military equipment after tribes. So the answer would be "Yes."

@luke_lafr @LinusTech Hoping to hear about Tesla AI day and Dojo D1 chips on WAN show. It's bonkers

[Wetmelon @Wetmelon]

@LinusTech @luke_lafr I write software for tractors & construction equipment. Everything you said about it is on point. IMO the biggest problem is bad programmers writing bad software and bad documentation, requiring a trained tech to parse errors. Service tools should be free

@kylekeefetv If the Avs win 7-1 tonight, one of the guys in our fan group has to get a Brazilian. We need this to happen. Can you tell the Avs to make it happen?

@torybruno 🤔

[Wetmelon @Wetmelon]

@luke_lafr Took your advice and bought Titanfall 2. Outstanding. Thanks for the recommendation!

[Wetmelon @Wetmelon]

@LinusTech @luke_lafr Anecdotally, MSN Messenger was hugely popular in Canada, but AIM was much more popular in the US. I had to switch from MSN to AIM when I moved from Ontario to NC back in 2002, because nobody had even heard of MSN.

@Pslavi @gio_tbilisi @elonmusk People post the most ridiculous complaints lmao. Thanks for the neat visualization :)
